Collio DOC Sauvignon Blanc 2023 (750 ml.) Schiopetto
The Collio DOC Sauvignon 2023 Schiopetto is made from Sauvignon grapes, a highly prestigious variety originally from Sauternes and Bordeaux, which has found an ideal habitat in Friuli. Cultivated on hills with clayey and fresh soils, it produces small and concentrated clusters. After harvesting, the grapes undergo gentle pressing and a brief period of decantation without sulfites, with fermentation in steel tanks using pied de cuve at a controlled temperature. The aging of 8 months on the lees adds complexity and structure. Elegant and mineral, it is perfect with raw seafood, shellfish, herb risottos, and fresh cheeses.

SCH-SAUVIGNON-BLANC-2023
6 Items
The name Schiopetto is synonymous with excellence in the Friulian and international wine scene. The winery, founded by Mario Schiopetto in the 1960s, represents the turning point that transformed Friuli Venezia Giulia into the cradle of great Italian white wines. Mario, with his innovative vision, introduced modern winemaking techniques and a rigorous approach in the vineyard, pursuing a clear objective: to obtain pure, elegant wines capable of precisely narrating the land from which they originate.
Today, the legacy of Mario Schiopetto lives in the vineyards of Collio and Colli Orientali del Friuli, where marl and sandstone soils meet a unique microclimate, characterized by the influence of the Julian Alps and the Adriatic breeze. This natural balance gives the wines freshness, minerality, and an extraordinary aging capacity. The cultivated varieties, including Friulano, Sauvignon, Pinot Bianco, Chardonnay, and Ribolla Gialla, find their highest expression here, offering complex aromas, refined structure, and great harmony in the glass.
The stylistic hallmark of Schiopetto wines lies in precision: every bottle reflects a constant pursuit of quality, from meticulous attention in the vineyard to vinification in steel, chosen to preserve the naturalness of the aromas and the clarity of taste. Far from passing trends, the winery's wines are designed to last, providing emotions even after years of aging.
Choosing Schiopetto means choosing an icon, a story made of passion, rigor, and respect for the land. A point of reference for connoisseurs and enthusiasts seeking authentic and long-lasting wines. Available also on Vino45, they are a must for those who want to discover the truest and most refined soul of Friuli Venezia Giulia.

Via Palazzo Arcivescovile, 1 - 34070 Capriva del Friuli (GO), Italy
